How did this happen? My little baby turned 4 today! After what seemed like a weeks worth of parties, John's actual birthday was today. Mike took the day off work, we dropped the babies off at GG's house, and had a great birthday day, just the 3 of us. We started off with lunch at Olive Garden because John wanted mac and cheese for lunch. Then we went to the Botanical Gardens to see their holiday train display. John was in love. We could have spent the entire day there and he would never have gotten bored. There were so many scenes to see...my favorite was a little barn area that had a moose being milked! Seriously? Do people milk moose? After the trains we went to the fire station and one of the firemen gave John a tour and showed him the firetruck and helped him slide down the pole. He got to sit in the drivers seat and turn on the lights. Before we left he loaded John up with a fire hat, a badge, and a bag full of pencils, erasers, stickers, and coloring books. John was in heaven getting to meet a REAL fireman!
